This is a quote from Ernie McNally From The Haven, which is where we performed the first CD release concert:
...imagine settling into a comfortable chair, warmed by an evening fire, and sharing a quiet smile, an easy laugh, and relaxed conversation with good friends.
 Now imagine putting it all to music.
Â
You now have a glimpse of the spirit, voice, and song of Linda Kidder--an extraordinarily talented woman who writes from her soul and sings from her heart.
 Her concerts are a joy, and her new CD will remind you why you love music.

Listen soon, remember often, the pleasure is all yours.
